The fair passed off splendidly as

reported. That was between an old
race horse groom and young fell

the same. Hard feelings existed,
and some words which were ex,

The General Purpose Cow.

Mr.. A. B Allen, in the Rural New
Yorker says. Some contend that such q
COW does not exist, but know that it does
and that it is the very best and most
profitable sort to keep by the farmer who
is not devoted to the special purpose Of
making either cheese or butter, or selling
his milk fresh. Such q COW annually
drops a calf that fattens nicely to salts
factory weight on It's mothers milk when
one month old, and can then be cold to
the butcher for good price and turn out
first quality veal. Or it can be raised at
moderate cost as a steer or COW, accord
ing to its sex, and then parted with, il
desired, al fair profit,
This COW will give from l6 TO "a quarts
OF milk Of good quality, when flush, and If
fed and treated, she will continue
TO Weld fair mess till within one TO two
months Of calvipg, ns may be desired. The
milk will be found excellent for family
use, and for the making Of butter and
cheese. When the COW gets old, she can
be dried Fl easily, and economically fat
tened, and turn out All excellent car cass OF
beef.

The Horses fo.t

Few farmers give that attention to their
horses feet that they should give, Most
men rub and curry well enough, perhaps,
and many take great pride and plenty of
time in smoothing the horses hide, but
seldom is 1t they think OF that most indis.
pensible part, the horses feet, and stop to
give them that little attention and inspec
ton that is almost daily necessary. The
feet Of the horse require as much attention
as the body, aud some horses feet much
more. Without sound feet the horse is
not OF much service for labor. A horses
feet may become unsound by having to
stand in a filthy stable. The floor and
bedding of the stable should always be dry
and the manure that is caked under the
foot every morning should be carefully re-
moved by the groom. As often as neces-
sary the foot should be pared and the frog
examined as to soundness and hardness.
A llttl aim water and brine should be kept
at hand and the frog Of the foot mopped
with it once week, to keep the frog sound
and hard. soft frog causes the animal
to get famed easily, SO that he cannot ira
vel or work we'll. Sometimes stones or
other hard substances get fastened in the
the foot, and II not removed cause lame
ness. Copperas thrown over the manure
Of the stable to destroy smell, will tend to
keep the hoof sound. 1t is well to sprinkle
It over the stable frequently, il for no 9TH
er purpose than to cure the smell that Of
ten attaches to the feet Of the horse Plas-
ter VIII have the same effect, and is very
useful to prevent the loss of ammonia from
the manure.

Sells Greatest Effort.
An Unparalleled Array Of Novel and
Dazzling Tented Attractions.

The announcement that Sells
Brothers will present their world
eminent tented aggregation in
Logan, Thursday, Sep. 18th, will be
pleasing intelligence to the
votaries of "horse opera" here
abouts. The city is just ripe for a
first class circus combination, as
the Messrs. Sells establishment
fills the bill in heaped and rounded
measure, there can be no question
but that they will meet with brilli-
ant and overwhelming success.
The Sells Brothers are known
throughout the length and breadth
of the land as men of sterling
worth, whose business methods
have stamped them as the most
genteel and honest managers that
ever entered the circus field. This
year the Sells Brothers will bring
to our city the hughest and grand
est show that has ever borne their
name, and which the Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Cleveland,
and Detroit newspapers emphatic
ally declare to be the most COM
plete, striking novel, and lavishly
sumptuous tented exhibition on
the continent. The show is a mag.
nificent model throughout. The
menagerie and trained wild beast
exhibit of this famous manage
ment have long been known as the
most extensive and valuable of any
similar displays in the country
This year the geological depart
ment has been strengthened to the
amount of $125,OOO. Three hundred
of the worlds greatest mid-air and
arenic stars will appear in q mon
ster program of ninety thrilling
acts-presented simultaneously in
three rings and on grand theatre
stage. An entirely new feature is
the reproduction of the classic Ro-
man hippodrome. Some sixty
English and Kentucky thorough
breds, in addition to elephants
camels, mules and ponies, contest
for supremacy in the hippodrome
races, which are given with start
ling and impressive effects. An
other important acquisition is
Pawnee Bill's famous Rocky
Mountain Show, with it's scouts
cowboys, vaqueros, "broncho bus.
ters," real blanket Indians, crack
shots, bucking horses, buffalo, elk
and deer. A prominent feature OF
Pawnee Bill's "Wild West" is his
representation of Custer's battle
on the Little Big Horn, in which
two hundred scouts, cowboys, Ind
ians and supernumeraries take
part. This vivid and realistic
struggle is given on the hippo
drome track, which affords ample
scope for it's complete presentation
